Re: Neat Q for Raid fans re: Leach's X/H/Y/Z labels, dying for feedback from Raid gur

Sorry I can’t answer these questions, but I LOVE the info! And it’s great to see someone more into the Raid than I am! I would assume that the personnel that is on the field would stay the same, like for example:
Take Ace Big. Since in the Gun Spread, from left to right you have X, H, Y, Z, then F in the backfield, I would think in Ace big the positions are the same (Z out wide, H being the left tight end, Y being the right tight end, z out right, and F in the backfield.
Trips TE might be a little tricky, but I would bet since the Y is the same type of player that he’d be in any other formation, it would be X, H, Z, and Y from left to right.
And again, I don’t know this, but it’s still fun to discuss the intricacies of the Air Raid so I hope you don’t mind me jumping in with my $.02.

Slot Vs Z Receiver

In a sense, the Z receiver is a bit of a hybrid between the X receiver and the slot receiver, and will be used as such. In two wide receiver formations, if the X and Z receiver remain on the field and to the same side of the formation, it’s the Z receiver who will assume the slot duties. Once again, the wide receivers entering the league in. The Steelers have a problem that isn't likely to be fixed in 2015. There's only going to be one ball on the field. Steelers quarterback Ben.
